“Connecticut combines both natural beauty – mountains, lakes, rivers, and Long Island Sound – with proximity to both Boston and New York. As a small state with 169 diverse communities, we offer midsized cities, small towns, suburbs, and rural areas. Connecticut is known for its history of inventions and patents, including the frisbee, the lollipop, the submarine, the hamburger, and more – and we continue to lead the country in innovations, including in our health care sector. Connecticut has almost 40 colleges/universities, worldclass theater and dining, a variety of outdoor activities – and, of course, we are the college basketball capital of the world!”
